It can be either. Sweat rashes are more prone to happen around the waistband or leg holes. More often, it is leaving waste products next to the skin for too long or excessively acidic urine or stool (like when teething). This also applies to not cleaning the skin at every diaper change.

lmao not only bad moms have kids with diaper rash..... that was just bit**y lol. anyways my daughter got diaper rash after switching from a year of breast feeding to toddler formula. It made her sleep longer so didn't get up as much at night with her and she got diaper rash. so I would say urine did it

Moisture, whether it be sweat, urine or poop that keeps the skin moist for a long period of time will cause it... Just be a consistent diaper changer and it will largely prevent it. Keep in mind of you breastfeed you will have much more frequent poopy diapers, as breast milk is natural and more readily digested.

It can be caused by several things including the type of diaper. One of my daughters kept getting a rash and it got to so bad that I was crying because I thought I was stupid or doing something wrong. I even kept a log to show the doctor when she was changed and what was in the diaper. The doctor told me to stop using disposable diapers and try cloth. I did and the rashes stopped. The material didn't agree with her skin. As for the comment earlier about only bad moms kids have diaper rash that's just silliness, what about babies on antibiotics for something and the medication kills the "good bacteria" causing a yeast infection.

Every time my baby gets sick she tends to get a pretty bad diaper rash which is only cured from a medicated prescription cream. Diaper rash can
Happen when a baby sits too long in a dirty/wet diaper, it can be when teething or digesting new foods or when their immune system is compromised.

Either or...or any other number of things. How can you actually be having an argument abou this!

Diaper rash is often caused by moisture against the skin...so could be sweat or urine when the diaper is not changed, poor cleaning or just the fact it is summer and we sweat. Diaper rashes are also caused by other things like yeast infections and the chemicals in diapers.

I think it's just moisture in general. Although my son usually starts getting red if he's having a day when he poops a lot.**should say I change him right after he poops so it's not because he sits in it. It never really develops into a full blown rash though.

My son would get a rash only with the sitter. Why? Because she would leave his diaper on to long when it was wet and she would use a cream rash guard. I would get him home and put powder on him and the next day it was gone.

I use powder and my son NEVER got a rash with me. Only her!

Oh lord. That's a ridiculous question. Diaper rash is pretty much chub rub. aka heat rash. Most of the time anyways. It's caused by *ANY* form of liquid (sweat, urine etc) rubbing against material against bare skin. Ever have chub rub on your thighs on a hot day when you've done a lot of walking? Or have a pair of pants that rub the wrong way and you get a rash? Yeah, that's pretty much the adult version of diaper rash.

Mind you, there are some medical issues that cause a diaper rash too. But majority is just essentially similar to a heat rash.
